Load Game (PlayerPrefs) via dialogue.

Hello, I am using the Dialogue System Menus extra, is there a way to load the saved game via dialogue?

What I want is, when the conversation ends, it will load a saved game. thanks

Hello,

Add a small script with an OnConversationEnd method to the Dialogue Manager. For example, something like:

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;
using PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem;
using PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.Menus;

public class LoadGameOnConversationEnd : MonoBehaviour {
    public void OnConversationEnd(Transform actor) {
        var loadSlot = DialogueLua.GetVariable("LoadSlot").AsInt;
        if (loadSlot >= 0) FindObjectOfType<SaveHelper>.LoadGameInSlot(loadSlot);
    }
} 

I have to emphasize that it will be something like the script above. I'm out of the office for most of the day today, so I can't double-check the syntax right now.

To use this, create a Number variable in your dialogue database named "LoadSlot", and set its value to -1. In your conversation, set the variable to a slot number. At the end of the conversation, this script will load the game in that slot.

Sounds good. If you get stuck, let me know. I'll be back in the office later today and can provide more details then.
